The decision of the Nobel Commission to award the Peace Award of Venezuel’s Maria Corina Machado instead of the United States President Donald Trump drew sharp rebuke from the White House, which accused the panel of “choosing policy over peace”. In a strongly formulated statement, he said that the President focused on “closing of peace stores, ending wars and saving lives”, despite the perceived snub.
White House spokesman Steven Cheung said in post X: “President Trump will continue to conclude peace agreements, end wars and save lives. He has a humanitarian heart and no one like him who can move the mountains with mere power of his will.”
“The Nobel Committee has shown to place policy over peace.”
Trump and others, such as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyah and Trump Administration, aggressively led the campaign for the Nobel Peace Prize to be awarded to the US President. The Snub also comes just after a ceasefire and the hostage ends the war in Gaza signed Israel and Hamas.
While Donald Trump never explicitly requires an honor, he often quoted the “wars he stopped” whenever he was interviewed at the Nobel Peace Prize. He calls on Donald Trump to win the Nobel Peace Award, recently loudly dealt with after Israel and Hamas interviewed the suspension of the war-mediation mediation.
The Gaza Peace Agreement came two years after Hamas Fighters crossed Gaza 7 October 2023 and killed nearly 1200 people in Israel and took over more than 250 people as a hostage. More than 67,000 people have died in Gaza since then.
Benjamin Netanyahu even shared a picture of a generated AI, who received Trump’s Nobel Peace Prize after both parties agreed to the agreement.
The headline “Give @realdonaldtrump The Nobel Prize of Peace – deserves it!”, Ai shows Donald Trump, surrounded by a crowd standing with his hands raised to celebrate, wearing a large, exaggerated gold medal around her neck to look like the Nobel Peace Prize.
Donald Trump has not yet commented Nobel’s decision, but on Friday morning he published three videos on his social account of Truth that supporters celebrate an agreement in Gaza. He also argued that he had stopped the conflict between India and Pakistan after a terrorist attack in Pahalgam and claimed to use the trade to get both countries on the negotiating table.
India denied all the claims.
However, close to Nobel’s observers told Reuters that the Trump Gaze Agreement was probably too late to be considered for this year’s price, which technically covers the achievements in 2024.
